A friend in the US has photos of cemeteries from across America and asked for some pics from the Phils.


Little did I know that people actually live in cemeteries there. People don't seem to fear their dead either.

Thanks to both of you.

Having the chance to explore far off places makes the crap that I have to go through 10 months out of the year worth it.
Having people appreciate my mildly interesting photos is surely worth the time posting them.

These are from the Manila North Cemetery.

This is the final resting place of Ronald Allen Kelley Poe, the politician that Arroyo stole(?) the election from.

Heritage Memorial Park - Taguig

This is a private but upscale cemetery.

The grass was as green as well kept as the golf course that I visited.

I dont even know what you would call these little buildings but some of them are very nice. This one was close enough to go get some photos of.

There weren't people living here and hanging their clothes up on the memorials.

I got confused and had to look it up in wikipedia, because I was pretty sure Pancho Villa was an old Mexican dude. Looks like there are two. Duh.

Both bad asses to be sure.

This is the Makati City building.

The steps at the entrance are very slippery. I fell flat on my ass walking down them after a light rain.

That would have made a good photo.
